I had a request to do a T shirt quilt from a friends' husbands t-shirts. He has been into baseball for several years and has the shirts to prove it. She wanted it for Father's Day and it finished just in time (around 6am this morning, June 18th, pulled an all-nighter *whew*) I slowed myself down in the process by trying to make sure everything was just like I wanted. She also had a sleeve on one of the shirts that she requested be included, it was a cute reminder of him having to rip them out to fit over his muscles that came from playing. Some of the shirts are a bit worn, and I opted to, rather than fixing, to showcase the worn or missing letters. It is 46x56 with a sleeve attached for hanging since this will be for a wallhanging. I couldn't stand throwing away the remainder of the t-shirts, so I made them into strips and made a tied basket he can use for storage. It will be another gentle reminder of his days of baseball.
